You can just 'yum install kernel.x86_64' and that'll work.
  

I did it in Fedora-11_i386 and there is no x86_64 kernel package.



Maybe you need to add the x86_64 repos to your yum config.

add x86_64 repos to yum doesn't work, because x86_64 packages couldn't 
be displayed by yum on i386 arch.
IIRC,  I did it  before  by using  a x86_64  environment  to  install it 
to  a  i386  root,  I meant  use  rpm command  with  '-r'   argument.


I think this is definitely  reasonable for people who want use i386 
distro for compatible reason and also want use large address space.


Thanks,
Wenming

Why not just use a x86_64 userspace and kernel i.e x86_64 distro ?

maybe you are talking about fedora 12 ??


Time ago I installed a Fedora-10 x86_64 kernel in the Fedora_10 i386
distribution but I got troubles when yum was trying to get updates.
Otherwise all was running OK.


-thanks-
